What kingdom are viruses classified in?
Viruses do not belong to any kingdom. There is an ongoing debate to whether viruses are alive or not. With the facts given, it is up to you to decide if viruses are alive or not. All Living things: -are composed of cells with a complex, organized structure -actively maintain their complex structure and internal environment (homeostasis) -respond to stimuli in their environment -acquire and use materials and energy from their environment and convert them into new forms -reproduce, using the molecular blueprint of DNA -have the capacity to evolve Viruses: -are not made of cells and do not have cells -cannot accomplish the basic tasks of living cells -have no ribosomes to make protein -have no cytoplasm -cannot acquire energy or steal the host's energy -cannot grow or reproduce by themselves or with other viruses -do not respond to stimuli -cannot maintain a stable internal environment -can evolve

Viral conjunctivitis is caused by a "virus". Viruses are not classified in the same manner as other organisms. They have no phylum, kingdom, etc. Viruses are classified first by whether they are a DNA or RNA virus. They are then classified according to how many strands they have, how big they are, whether they are positive or negative stranded and so forth. Viral conjunctivitis might be caused by any of a number of different viruses so it is not possible to say which one.

There are a few newer classification systems that have been developed to better categorize and classify viruses, but these are not yet the standard.
